Welcome to NeuroTalk:

I wouldn't be surprised as magnesium is a very crucial mineral and often low in Americans.

But...if you have used Cipro, Levaquin or Avelox in the past, any of these could be a factor too.
This family of drugs is called fluoroquinolones, and they cause some disruption in tendon biology which is not understood well, and may even cause tendons to rupture long after the drug is stopped.

Tendons also have silica in them. Diets low in whole foods lack silica. Whole grains, bananas, green beans are examples of foods that provide this mineral.

There is an autoimmune disease that attacks tendons, and I think there is a blood test for that.
